FINANCIAL IMPACT
Approval of this item will not result in the use of additional Discretionary General Funding (Net County Cost). On September 21, 2021 (Item No. 18) and November 16, 2021 (Item No. 33), the Board of Supervisors (Board) approved an allocation of $4 million and $7 million, respectively, to the Board Discretionary Fund - District Specific Priorities Program (Priorities Program), for each of the five supervisorial districts for projects that meet a public purpose, and provide services to citizens that promote health, safety, economic well-being, and other public services that enhance quality of life and meet the needs of the County citizens. On an annual basis, unspent appropriations for discretionary funding will be carried over into the subsequent year’s budget. The recommended contracts under Recommendations Nos. 1 and 2 will be funded by the Second District’s Priorities Program budget.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Priorities Program projects help to promote the vision of a complete County by recognizing the unique traits of each Supervisorial District and, thereby, allow individual Board Districts to work with community partners through County services and contractual agreements to identify programs, projects, and initiatives, that support the vision, meet a public purpose and provide services to citizens that promote health, safety, economic well-being, education, recreation, and other public services that enhance quality of life, and meet the needs of the County’s citizens. Projects under the District Specific Priorities Program are based on District Supervisor discretion and are presented by the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) for Board approval.
The recommended contracts under Recommendation Nos. 1 and 2 will assist the Second District Supervisor with the public purpose of providing for the health and safety of County residents by providing funding to assist the City of Upland with enhancing its Magnolia Recreation Center and funding for the Foothill Family Shelter to assist with housing and shelter programs.
The CEO, at the direction of the Supervisor of the respective district that the contract serves, may extend the term of the contract, in writing, under the following conditions:
a. In aggregate all extensions do not exceed 12 calendar months;
b. Are specifically requested by Contractor;
c. Will not change the project goals or scope of services;
d. Are in the best interests of County and Contractor in performing the scope of services under this Contract; and
e. Do not alter the amount of compensation under this Contract.
Board discretionary funding allocations under the Priorities Program are non-competitive and must be for projects or services of $50,000 or more. Contracts shall be paid on a lump-sum basis or under other terms as approved by Board.
